2017-2018 Clara’s Circle Leadership Circle Announced

We are thrilled to announce the 2017-2018 Leadership Council! Each year, the Foundation receives hundreds of Clara’s Circle Leadership Council (CCLC) applications from collegians across North America. This year, we handpicked 25 young women who represent 19 Alpha Phi collegiate chapters to act as Foundation ambassadors. Each of them have demonstrated leadership within their communities and are upstanding members of Alpha Phi Fraternity and Clara’s Circle.

Over the next year, the Leadership Council will work together to further educate collegiate members on the power of their philanthropy and lead them to build and strengthen their individual giving. Their efforts will be led by the CCLC Chair, Stephanie Bianco (Xi—Toronto). This is the first role of its kind in the history of Clara’s Circle.

Clara’s Circle is a Giving Circle exclusively for Alpha Phi collegians. Through Clara’s Circle, collegiate members learn to become educated donors and join together in advancing women’s lives by making personal gifts. These gifts honor and support our Alpha Phi sisterhood, making an impact in the lives of our sisters today and tomorrow.

Meet the 2017-2018 Leadership Council!
